That sounds fair Thumbs Up

PS: I just want a little more clearance for the Kuhmo KL71's do you think that 30mm will be enough to be helpful off-road?

300 mm I would not go with as it would require small ladder to get in or out of the vehicle and it would be very very dangerous to drive over 30 mile per hour lol

@gazellio why go to all that expense and bother just to raise your Disco 30mm? Get as much ground clearance as you can much better for off road stuff Thumbs Up EDIT= wish i could have got the older King Springs @60mm

I have contacted MM 4X4 in Worcester and they have no D3 springs listed?

Can anybody post a definitive source for UK supplied D3 4cm replacement coil springs of any brand?

THanks Thumbs Up


I have double checked and the springs did come from M and M and were purchased in July 2010. They were claimed to give 30mm lift but in reality were a touch over 40mm. Contact Chris at M and M on 01905 459936. They were not listed with them as such but they sourced them and supplied them to me.[/img]

I have located the 30mm springs at MM 4x4 via a very helpful salesman. If they are 40mm (2 inches) in reality then I may get them as they are good value and I am not looking for the Monster Truck effect as I want to use the D3 on the road quite a bit as well as occasional off roading.
